Muh mein baar baar ulcers, jeebh mein jalan, ya jeebh smooth aur flat ho gayi — doctor ne ulcers ki cream dedi, theek hua, wapas aa gaya। Yeh cycle agar repeated hai toh Vitamin B12 ki kami check karwana zaroori hai। Dr. Ritu Goyal, MDS regularly aise cases dekhti hain — aur kai baar dentist hi pehle yeh detect karta hai।
Vitamin B12 Aur Muh Ka Connection
Vitamin B12 nerve function aur red blood cell production ke liye zaroori hai। Muh ki mucosa (lining) aur jeebh bahut zyada active tissue hain — B12 ki kami ka asar sabse pehle yahaan dikhta hai।
Muh Mein B12 Ki Kami Ke Signs
1. Jeebh Mein Jalan (Burning Tongue)
Jeebh pe jalan ya burning sensation — bina kisi obvious reason ke। Hot food nahi khaya, kuch naya nahi — phir bhi jeebh jalti lagti hai। Yeh B12 deficiency ka classic sign hai।
2. Jeebh Smooth Aur Flat Hona (Glossitis)
Normal jeebh pe chhote bumps (papillae) hote hain। B12 kami mein yeh papillae flat ho jaate hain — jeebh smooth, shiny, aur sometimes bright red ya pale lagti hai। Khana chabana aur bolna affect ho sakta hai।
3. Baar Baar Muh Ke Ulcers
Aphthous ulcers jo baar baar aate hain — sirf stress nahi, B12 bhi common cause hai। Ulcer theek hua — 2-3 hafte baad wapas। Cycle repeat hota hai।
4. Muh Ke Konon Mein Cracks (Angular Cheilitis)
Yeh iron aur B12 dono ki kami mein hota hai। Antifungal cream se temporarily theek — wapas aa jaata hai। Source fix karo।
5. Numbness Ya Tingling
Jeebh ya hont mein pins and needles feeling — nerve involvement। Yeh B12 ki gehri kami ka sign hai।
6. Pale Ya Yellow Madi
B12 kami se anaemia hoti hai — madi pale ho sakti hai।
India Mein B12 Ki Kami Kyun Zyada Hai
- Vegetarian/Vegan diet: B12 sirf animal products mein hota hai — doodh, anda, machhli, meat. Pure vegetarians mein deficiency common
- Gut absorption: Kuch log B12 absorb nahi kar paate — intrinsic factor ki kami
- Metformin (diabetes ki dawa): B12 absorption reduce karti hai — diabetes patients check karwayein
- Aging: 50+ mein absorption naturally kam hoti hai
Kya Karein
- ✅ Blood test — serum B12 level check karwayein
- ✅ Diet: Doodh, dahi, paneer, anda, machhli — natural B12 sources
- ✅ Supplement: Oral B12 (Cyanocobalamin) ya injection — doctor ki salah pe
- ✅ Underlying cause check: Gut absorption issue ya pernicious anaemia
Clinic observation — Dr. Ritu Goyal: "2 saal mein 4-5 baar ulcers aaye ek patient ke — cream se theek hote, wapas aate. Hum ne B12 aur iron test suggest kiya. B12 bahut low mila. 3 mahine supplement ke baad ulcers band ho gaye. Dentist akela nahi dekh sakta — blood test zaroori hota hai — lekin mouth ke repeated signs doctor ke paas bhej sakte hain."

Aksar Pooche Jaane Wale Sawaal
Jeebh mein jalan (burning tongue), jeebh smooth/flat hona (glossitis), baar baar ulcers, muh ke konon mein cracks, jeebh ya hont mein numbness — yeh B12 deficiency ke oral signs hain.
Vegetarian diet mein B12 sirf dairy aur ande se milta hai. Pure vegetarians/vegans mein deficiency common. Metformin lene wale, 50+ age, gut absorption issues — sabmein risk zyada.
Blood test se confirm karo pehle. Dietary sources try karo — doodh, dahi, anda. Agar kami confirmed ho toh doctor ki salah pe oral supplement ya injection. Self-medication avoid karein.
Sirf cream se kaam nahi chalega agar B12 ya iron low hai. Blood test karwayein — serum B12, iron, CBC. Root cause theek karo toh ulcers naturally band hote hain.
Haan — burning tongue syndrome ka ek common cause B12 deficiency hai. Vitamin B12 nerves ke liye zaroori hai — kami mein jeebh ki nerve irritated hoti hai.
